"Success does not lead to happiness, happiness leads to success." (Paraphrased)

-Pastor Ogie Fernandez

School's finally back! I have to admit though, that I do have mixed feelings about actually going back or not. It was three long months; even summer breaks don't last that long! Anyways, I entered this break with the mindset that God was cooking up something really good for me and perhaps had other things in mind than what I had figured out. As I look back, I can say that the break was pretty amazing, filled with many great moments and memories.

One of the things that I felt the break really enabled me to do was to really think out my academic and future aspirations. In case anyone was wondering, I'm enrolled in an undergraduate business program, which is something I've really learned to enjoy and be passionate about. However, I also developed an ever increasing passion for music, especially in using it to worship God over the years. In other words, I kind of find myself torn between the two, but I know that I just have to trust God in all this.

I just really have to keep things in the right perspective and to put my priorities in the right places more than ever before. And no matter what happens, I just want my life to be the life the God wants me to live. I know for sure that he has my best interests and desires in mind, and perhaps even better! Whatever I come to do in life, I just want to do it joyfully and happily, and I believe its gonna be something that really puts God in the center of it all. I've always been a person that was driven by success, and if success comes from the joy of living a life sold out for God, than I'm all for it...
